Subnautica 2 Repair Tool Blueprint
Tool recipe
Repair Tool is a route decision because its fragments pull you toward early wrecks and story-adjacent stops. Do it with Scanner, oxygen margin, and a clear exit plan rather than as a random long swim.

Recipe version: Recipe reviewed for Early Access build 128456. The two-scan unlock is also documented in the official EA 1.2 patch notes.

Recipe or unlock row
1 Titanium Ingot + 1 Wiring Kit + 1 Basic Battery + 1 Sulfur → 1 Repair Tool
Titanium Ingot
Fabricator conversion: 5 Titanium. Processor conversion: 3 Titanium.
Wiring Kit
One Silver plus one Copper Wire; the wire costs 2 Copper.
Basic Battery
Craft from 2 Copper and 1 Acidic Raion Pouch if you need a new battery.
Sulfur
Keep one Sulfur available for the final tool recipe.
Route order
Follow the unlock order before spending materials on lower-priority extras.
Step 1
Prepare Scanner and oxygen margin
Do not start the fragment route before the starter tool and oxygen kit are stable.
Step 2
Use Chap base as a lead
The southeast Chap blackbox cave is one supported early route point.
Step 3
Choose one wreck for the second scan
Use either the south wreck or the northeast wreck after Chap base. Keep the other location as a fallback or a separate looting trip.
Step 4
Stop at two and pin the craft
After the blueprint completes, pin its recipe. EA 1.2 highlights a pinned recipe when you collect a resource it needs.
Step 5
Craft after unlock
At the Fabricator, combine 1 Titanium Ingot, 1 Wiring Kit, 1 Basic Battery and 1 Sulfur. The ingot and Wiring Kit are finished components, so loose Titanium and Copper alone do not complete this row.

Questions people ask
Do I need three Repair Tool fragments?
No. The official EA 1.2 patch reduced the unlock to two scans. Three route locations are listed so you have a choice or a fallback.
Where should I look for Repair Tool fragments?
Use the Chap base, south wreck, and northeast wreck route leads, then stop once the blueprint is complete.
Can I craft Repair Tool before the scans?
No. Treat it as a fragment unlock first, then read the Fabricator row after the blueprint completes.
What is the Repair Tool recipe?
Use 1 Titanium Ingot, 1 Wiring Kit, 1 Basic Battery and 1 Sulfur at the Fabricator after completing the two-fragment unlock.
